If, instead of a gem
or even a flower,
we could cast the gift
of a lovely thought
into the heart of a friend,
that would be giving
as angels give.

A gift of a lovely thought. This vintage hanky is from a lovely blogirl-friend, Marlene. I met this woman through her lovely blog & laugh out loud at her funny, funny insights into every day living and wipe a tear for her heart-tugging endearments.
And she sends me this. Does she know that vintage hankies have such a fond place in my heart? I collect these! I love these! I cherish these with every particle of my collecting self!
Ah. Such blessings. From such a beautiful friend.

This blogging land of ours is wonderful and even though most of us will never actually meet, we can be ourselves and share our passions here.
Have groovy day Dawn! :o)
What a wonderful thing to do! It is a beautiful hanky too. I would love to see any other hankies you might have. That would make for a terrific post.
Awww --- how sweet is that! I love the handwork. Marlene is definitely a sweetheart. Her blog is phenomenal!
